Shape the Patties
In a mixing bowl, shape the ground beef into two equal patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.

Cook the Burgers
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Season both sides of the patties with salt and black pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the meat reaches your desired doneness.

Prepare the Fries
If using frozen fries, cook them according to package instructions. If making homemade fries, cut potatoes into sticks, toss with oil, salt, and pepper, and bake or fry until golden and crispy.
